A 65-year-old woman with a history of constipation presented at our hospital and was subsequently diagnosed with advanced cecum cancer. We performed laparoscopic right hemicolectomy in January 2009, with pathological findings reveal- ing the presence of Stage III b (pT3, pN3, cM0, Cur A) disease. The patient was treated with a uracil/tegafur plus Leucovorin (UFT/LV) adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for six months. In June 2010, bold examination indicated an elevated level of tumor marker CA19-9. Computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT revealed Virchow's and para-aortic lymph node metastasis. Therapy with XELOX and bevacizumab (Bmab) was administered and continued for 10 cycles. Capecitabine+Bmab treatment was also administered for 11 courses due to an adverse event of peripheral neuropathy. Follow-up revealed both the Virchow's and para-aortic lymph node metastasis had disappeared upon completion of treatment. In November, 2011 the patient was considered to have achieved a clinical complete response (CR) and continues to be followed with no further disease progression.
